Racial Justice Center Director

About this role

The Racial Justice Center will be the NYCLU’s homebase for thinking, writing, advocating, and organizing for racial equity in New York. The Center director and staff will lead the NYCLU’s work to achieve racial equity and justice, challenge racial discrimination, and work in close collaboration with communities of color across the state, including Indigenous communities, to protect and promote civil rights. The Center will have a particular focus on the intersectionality of racial justice with other NYCLU priority areas, such as reform of the criminal legal system, economic justice, privacy, reproductive rights, LGTBQ+ rights, immigration, and education. The New York Civil Liberties Union (NYCLU) is one of the nation's leading advocates on behalf of constitutional rights and liberties.
